I struggle with the fact that my children do not live with me full time..or at all.. when I left my marriage .. I left my children with their mother . In the home they were raised in.. at the time that seemed to be the best choice.. however i did suggest to my boys! that if I was to get a bigger place would they be willing to come stay part-time even?...But my boys made it clear they were happy where they were.. they had everything they needed.. they were not fond of the idea of going between two homes. After hearing this from them the matter seemed settled. and quite honestly. I was happy not to have the expense that comes with renting a bigger place.. and the fact that I see my boys almost daily . And talk to them by phone regularly was a contributing factor as well . But what I was not prepared for was how much I would miss them and being in the same space with them. Cooking meals for them being there for them when they come home from school or seeing them off in the morning.... I was not prepared for what a big impact the loss of those little routines.. are the absence of having them in the same space 24/7 would have on my well-being and peace of mind. And how that would make me feel.... even though I do see them and talk to them regularly.. but in the beginning I sometimes felt as though I had abandoned my children... although I have come to terms with the fact that that is not the case.. . but now I just feel sometimes! And deeplee the absence of them I ache to be with my boys full-time regularly..
Any coping advice would be appreciated.. or perhaps your own experiences in this matter... positive advise..only please
